This option was reading the correct number of bytes but from the wrong starting offset within the xar file. The --dump-toc-raw option always read at least the first sizeof(xar_header_ex_t) bytes from the file before reading header.toc_length_compressed bytes of data for the TOC header. However, sizeof(xar_header_ex_t) is the _maximum_ possible size of the header. The minimum size is sizeof(xar_header_t). The option then reads any additional bytes needed to position the fd at header.size bytes from the beginning of the file.
